Hi guys, I just bought K2 Revolver TW pros (upgrading from my Salomon boot) and trying to get these to work.
it currently feels like my feet are literally in a vice clamp, which I don’t understand because I don’t feel like I have particularly wide feet, I am only 5’ 10” and 150lbs with average feet. I have friends over six feet tall and much bigger than me who fit easily into these. The length is fine just the width is killing my feet. Five minutes in these boots and my feet are throbbing so there’s no way I can break them in while skiing. I need to get them broken in at the boot fitter.
my question is how much can this shell be widened if I go to a good boot fitter? Is it common to have to get these punched and molded to this extent? Really trying to make this work but would suck to spend money on a boot fitter for it to not work and then not be able to return. I tried the K2 method as well with the wider last but it was also too tight and too heavy of a boot plus I prefer the cables and look of the revolver. The last is 99mm, would it be possible to widen to like 102-103mm? Would be ideal if I could get these as comfortable as my old Salomon boots.
